Testimonials about Ross Tucker’s work in high performance environments:

Dr Ross Tucker spoke to our Business Forum in Cape Town in April of this year.  His scientific approach to setting and achieving goals and his content around the subject of outstanding performance was truly memorable and inspiring.  It was a refreshing change for ‘inspiration’ and  ‘personal achievement’ to be set within the context of known fact rather than the more vague and soft conceptual wrappings that “inspirational” presentations often attract.

Kathy English Brower ConsultingFounder & CEO, Kathy English Brower ConsultingCape Town South Africa

African Bank had the privilege to engage with Ross Tucker on three occasions.  He is both inspiring and practical – which is essentially the combination we look for.  As is the case with most organisations, I am sure, we look for speakers who appeal to both the heart and the mind.  There are many highly skilled analytical minds, which need a level of academic stimulation and then there are those who need their heart strings to be tugged!  Ross unequivocally meets these requirements

“Better people make people better, and Ross Tucker is the best”
